Now You See it and Now You Don't.
From the Chicago Trib,


In an Illinois city within fifty miles from
Chicago there is a hotel where the service
at table is VIGOROUSLY bad. 1t can be i'm
proved blythe use of tips to walters, and
guests of the house know it. drummer
was telling the other night how he got sat
isfactory dinner at the hotel. There is some
thing familiar about the story, but it is good
enough to tell. The drummer sat down at
the table and managed to get a wal
ter.
pete, " said he, taking big silver dollar
from his pocket and putting it under a
goblet turned upside down, ''do you see
that"
Eyes, sab" said Pete, affably 81 secs
it,"
well, now, you hurry around and get
me just as good dinner as you know how
and don't keep me waiting"
Better service than the drummer had
could not be desired The meat was Just
what he asked for, the vegetables fresh and
daintily set before him, the courses followed
each other in rapid succession, and when
the guest had finished he was satisfied.
Pete" he said again, as he laid his nap
lar"
Eyes, sab" said Pete with expectation in
his eyes
"Well, Pete, remarked the drummer as
he removed the goblet, take good look at
it, for you'll never see itagain."
Then the drummer put The coin into his
pocket and strolled out of the room, while
Pete kicked his chair so far under the table
it took a requisition on the Governor of the
adjoining State to set it back.

How Much a Man Eats.

Richard 4. Proctor IN the October Cosmopoliton
1t has been calculated that on the average
each man who attains the age of three-score-
and-ten consumes during the course of his
life twenty wagon loads of food, solid and
liquid. At four tons TO the wagon this
would correspond to an average of about
100 ounces of food per day, or say some 10
ounces per day during adult life and about
so ounces during infancy and youth Most
modern doctors agree in regarding 100 ounces
of food per day, corresponding TO five or
six half-pints of liquid food and seven or
eight pounds Of solid food, as in excess of
the real daily requirements of a healthy
man or woman.
Yet probably most of us take more than
